Gosh! how did I miss this Group?! I have joined all the others!!!! I, too, am a Member of the Guild.

I think this group started while I was mentally in limbo, with my DH very ill., but not sure how come I did not see it on the Groups list, when I got back to normal (normal for me, that is!!) anyway,. I have found you now!!!!!! :)

Ive had a word with the committee and you would need to become an overseas member at a cost of £21 (not sure what that currently is in dollars). Im afraid until we get a few more members in the USA, an International branch isnt an option. Membership is available via our website, see the link above. I hope that answers your question. kind regards Emily
